11:19 pm
hour tonight through tuesday, you can see the perseid meteor shower from the comet swift-tuttle. given the right viewing conditions, it may be possible to see 50 to 100 meteors striking across the sky each hour. perfect timing because the moon that is, is expected to set in just a few minutes. spencer christian is here to talk about that. i will be on my roof later on, looking up in the air. >> you might get a pretty good view of the conditions. are looking more favorable now than they were when we talked about it at 6:00. wow. here in the city now we're going to have a marine layer during the overnight hours. but during the first couple of hours after midnight, things look pretty clear. fingers crossed. okay, here we go. here's a look at what's happening right now. the satellite radar composite image a nice brisk cooling onshore breeze has blown away the low clouds that were around earlier, but more will be developing during the overnight hours, so we can count on that. right now, the wind is relatively calm. we've got 10 to 15 mile per hour
11:20 pm
wind speeds around most of the bay area. it is a lot cooler right now than it was at this time. last night. five degrees cooler in novato, eight degrees cooler. fairfield, 12 degrees cooler in concord. so the cooling is underway. as you may have noticed today, here's a look at current temperature readings 55 here in san francisco, 60 degrees are just above 60 at oakland, hayward, san jose, and redwood city. 55 at half moon bay. and here's that view from mount tam. and notice it's a pretty clear view for now. 55 degrees at this hour in santa rosa and napa, we've got 52 at petaluma and upper 50s at fairfield, concord and livermore, and at the golden gate right now, where we had fog or low clouds earlier in the evening. right now it's relatively clear. so these are our forecast headlines overnight. coastal low clouds and fog will develop. maybe not until well just before about 5 or 6 a.m. so it'll be slow to develop just in time for the morning commute tomorrow we'll have mainly sunny skies in the afternoon, but high temperatures will be below average, so it'll be a cool to mild day. and for
11:21 pm
the remainder of the week, it looks like we'll stay in that same pattern. mainly sunny afternoons with just minor warming as we get into the middle of the week, but no significant change in the temperature range. so overnight we'll see lots of high clouds passing over at some points and little patches of drizzle developing offshore. and finally, as we approach the morning commuting hours, we'll see the marine layer redeveloping, pushing locally across the bay and locally inland, and there will be more patches of drizzle that will sort of wind down after about 7 or 8 a.m, giving way to brighter skies as we approach the midday hours. overnight, low temperatures will be mainly in the mid to upper 50s, around 50 for san francisco and half moon bay, and across the bay and right around the bay shoreline. mainly 5657 degrees, so not a wide range of lows, but the inland areas that are warmer in the daytime will be warmer overnight. for example, antioch, a low of only 62 degrees, san jose a low of 60, whereas other locations will be in the 50s. highs tomorrow 60 at half moon bay 64, san francisco, oakland 68. the inland east bay, which last week this time was in the upper 90s low 80s, low to mid
11:22 pm
80s. tomorrow 82 at concord, 84 at antioch up in the north bay. highs of 85 at santa rosa, 75 at napa and down in the south bay. san jose will warm up to about 77 degrees. here's the accuweather seven day forecast as you can see, it will warm up just a few degrees from monday to tuesday, but not a lot. we'll see upper 80s as the highest of the inland highs for most of the week, maybe up to about 90 on wednesday, mid 70s around the bay shoreline and low 60s on the coast. but it's a pretty steady pattern with no significant fluctuations upward or downward. so steady pattern, mild afternoons, mainly sunny skies in the afternoon and fog and drizzle in the morning. >> i'm still thinking about the meteor shower. yes now the question is, will the phone pick up images of it? >> now that's a question i can't answer. i'm not responsible for the phones, only for the sky conditions. >> thanks so much, spencer. >> still ahead on abc seven news at 11. chef curry set the world

internet. plus my interview with the cast of the iconic show new york undercover. that's coming up this week at 1 p.m, right here on abc seven. >> a family in utah is now $25,000 richer after discovering a hidden treasure. and this isn't some long buried gold. the search was organized by two men who hid the treasure chest back in june and shared riddles to help people find it. they started running regular treasure hunts back in 2020, trying to give people a way to have fun outside during the lockdown.
11:48 pm
mission accomplished. for this treasure finding father and his two sons. >> i'm going to finish my degree, go back to school, shopping today. that'll be the first thing we spend it on paying off debts and putting some into school accounts for these guys. >> the chest itself is not filled with cash, rather a qr code to claim the $25,000 winnings. wow. spencer christian is here. spencer i'm very excited for the family, but i always get a little bummed out that i didn't know what was going on until after it was found. exactly right. we could have been there in utah. >> we could have been, but i don't think we would have found it. no, i'm not much of an outdoorsman. >> yes, weather's a little different than it is here to know. >> you do have to go outdoors for the weather. and here's what's going on with our weather. we've got looking at the golden gate right now, you can see that an absence of low clouds and fog, which you typically have this time of the night this time of the year, but it will redevelop overnight. low
11:49 pm
clouds and drizzle by early morning tomorrow afternoon. below average temperatures under mainly sunny skies. and for the remainder of the week, we'll have a cooler than average uh- temperature trend with mainly sunny afternoons overnight. once the fog moves in and the drizzle begins, we'll have low temperatures, mainly in the mid to upper 50s. highs tomorrow afternoon, about 60 degrees at the coast where some low clouds will linger. low 70s around the bay shoreline and mid 80s in the warmest inland spots. and here's the accuweather seven day forecast. notice how mild it's going to be all week long. no temperatures soaring into the upper 90s, mainly upper 80s. in fact, in the warmest inland spots. mid 70s around the bay, low 60s on the coast. uh. it's a lovely week ahead and a great back to school week for those who are just going back. >> relaxing weather maybe not as relaxing with the kids getting amped up for school, but relaxing weather? >> i think so too. >> yeah, thanks so much, spencer. up next, a wild finish in nascar as a driver causes two wrecks on the final lap to win. and i had the honor of meeting dwight clark ten years ago. how the 40 niners honored him this

11:53 pm
here on abc seven against aaron rodgers and the jets. but will brandon aiyuk be at levi's stadium for the game? at least he and the niners are reportedly talking about a new contract. again. that's good news, but so far nothing has been resolved. this past wednesday was august 7th or eight seven, dwight clark's number. and so it was dwight clark day at 40 niners practice. he lost his battle with als six years ago. the niners invited als patients for a meet and greet and many former 40 niners and teammates of dwight's were there to celebrate in santa clara. now, from a personal standpoint, i first met
11:54 pm
clark in 2014 on the flight back to san jose from seattle after the niners lost to the seahawks in the nfc championship. stand up guy, linebacker fred warner one last year as dwight clark award for carrying on his spirit of teamwork and camaraderie. and that is a special honor for him. >> yeah, it's a huge day, you know, dwight clark means a lot to the 40 niners. and, you know, i was blessed and honored to receive the dwight clark award last year, and was able to speak to a lot of his former teammates and guys that were around him. and they all speak about just how amazing he was as a person, as a teammate. and, you know, and i think that just that speaks to who he was. obviously, we know about the catch. but, you know, i think the impact that he left on everyone that he that he met and was around is what really mattered. >> x niner qb's in action. sort of jimmy garoppolo on the rams watching them take on trey lance in the dallas cowboys. lance did not get into the game at all for dallas last season. so this was
11:55 pm
his first action. he did have this 26 yard run but did not account for a touchdown. just overthrowing a guy in the corner right here. it couldn't quite hit him and by most accounts still looks like he has a lot of work to do. the rams won the game in the final seconds when former georgia quarterback stetson bennett, who threw for pits picks, also threw the only touchdown of the game with one second to go. and the rams win 13 to 12. stephen curry isn't the only bay area basketball player heading home from paris with a gold medal. walnut creek native sabrina ionescu is also bringing home the gold after the us women won their eighth straight olympic gold. but no time to rest for sabrina. the wnba season resumes thursday. the paris olympics was also the last time warriors coach steve kerr will lead the us national team, even though he's the head
11:56 pm
coach, he does not get a gold medal and neither does his staff. those only go to the players. kerr faced a lot of criticism from outsiders for some of his lineup decisions throughout the olympics, but the noise did not bother him. the us didn't lose a game and won their fifth straight gold medal, and kerr returns home a champion, very proud of his team and his country. >> it's an amazing feeling to watch them up on the stage and then to see the flag. you know, uh- going up to the rafters hearing the national anthem. i don't know that i've ever been more proud to be american, to be part of a group of people that accomplished something special. it was it was really a beautiful evening and drama and nascar tonight at the richmond 400. >> you got to see this. it's the last lap in austin. dillon needs to win to make the playoffs. so it appears he intentionally spins out leader joey logano
11:57 pm
also spins out the number 11 of denny hamlin wins the race and therefore makes the playoffs. look at this from the upper angle camera. there goes logano. there goes hamlin. it's part of racing. i guess. but needless to say, logano not happy and didn't hold back. >> what are your thoughts on what happened down there? it's chicken. >> there's no no doubt about it. he's four car lengths back. not even close. then he wrecks the 11 to go along with it. i mean dude, i get it. bump and run, i get it. i didn't back up the corner at all. he came in there and just drove through me. it's ridiculous. >> awesome island. but he was heated up and he is mad. this abc seven sports report is sponsored by river rock casino. a reminder that you can watch all our newscasts live and on demand through the abc seven bay area connected tv app. it's available for apple tv, google tv, amazon fire tv and roku. download the app now and start
